Gemma Pozzo

I currently have online availability on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

I’m Gemma, a person‑centred counsellor and psychotherapist, offering online sessions throughout the UK. Thank you for visiting my profile- I know there are many therapists out there, and it can feel overwhelming to find someone who feels right for you.

I offer a welcoming space where you can explore whatever you’re experiencing in a supportive and understanding way. My aim is to hear and understand you in an empathetic, steady way that helps you navigate what feels important at your own pace.

Human connection and authenticity are at the heart of how I work. Everyone I meet brings something unique, and I value the honesty and depth that can emerge as people make sense of their world. I’m also mindful of the wider systems and pressures that can shape how we feel, and I hold space for the impact they can have- including the demands of academic environments. 

I often work with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin. I work with a wide range of experiences including trauma, neurodivergence and grief. I aim to support the way you process and this often includes exploring different ways of working together. Perhaps you find it more helpful to communicate using creativity or silence. Sometimes silence or creativity may include writing you have done, or music or poetry which holds meaning for you and could be a starting point. Maybe you find sensory materials supportive in your processing. This flexibility means we can create a space that supports you in the way you want it to

In our first session, we take time to get to know each other and explore what feels important for you to share

I offer sessions through Willow Path Counselling and Psychotherapy. I have availability online on Wednesdays from 10am–4pm and Saturdays from 10am–4pm throughout the UK. I also work in-person, online or by telephone from a therapy room a few minutes’ walk from Glasgow Central Station.

It's really important to me that you can find a therapist who you can work well with you. Therefore, I am more than happy to offer a free 15-minute chat to find out if working together with me feels like a good fit for you.

If you’re feeling unsure, stuck or disconnected, you’re not alone.

 It can be easy to feel overwhelmed or burned out. People come to counselling for many different reasons. You might be dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, work stress, questions around identity, past experiences that still affect you, or simply a sense that something does not feel right. You do not need to have the “right” words or a clear reason before beginning.

I’m a person-centred therapist, and my work is based on meeting you as you are, without pressure to explain everything perfectly or know exactly where to begin. Therapy with me is not about rushing you towards answers, but creating space to notice what feels difficult, confusing, or unresolved at your own pace.

If this sounds like something that might fit for you, please get in touch...I would love to hear from you.   

We’ll have regular check‑ins to explore how the therapy feels for you and whether it’s meeting your needs. I don’t have expectations about how quickly someone should move or what “progress” should look like. I’m able to sit with you in places that feel uncomfortable or uncertain, offering steady support as you make sense of things.

I have items such as fidget tools/toys, art materials and other sensory supports as these can help with the therapeutic process.

Accessibility: If you’re planning to come in person, the building has a few stairs up to the main entrance. My room is on the first floor, and there’s a small lift available. If you have any accessibility needs or adjustments that would help you feel comfortable, just let me know and I’ll do my best to accommodate them.

We can talk about what has brought you to therapy, what you’re hoping for, and anything that feels important for me to understand.

I’ll explain how I work, answer any questions you may have, and check in with you about what you need from the space. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out, we go at your pace, and the session can be as structured or open as you need it to be.

If you’re attending in person, I’ll show you the room I work from and make sure you feel settled before we begin. If we’re meeting online or by phone, we’ll take a moment to make sure the connection feels comfortable for you.
